Let's hope that Michael Ignatieff's "Rise Up!" speech and Rick Mercer's recent rant will encourage people, and especially young people, to get out to vote and make a difference. We need to see more of this side of Ignatieff.

Thanks Helen. I wish Ignatieff would be more like this on a consistent basis. Most of the time he's too collegial for his own good. I think he reacts in shock to Harper's prevarications, and is at a loss for words.
